Forbes 4/20/14

"In 2014, the US will use almost 5 billion bushels of corn to produce over 13 billion gallons of ethanol fuel. The corn required to fill a 25-gallon tank with ethanol can feed one person for a year, so the amount of corn used to make that 13 billion gallons of ethanol will NOT be feeding the almost 500 million people it was feeding in 2000."

And speaking of unintended consequences.....

Taco Hell?

- As I recall, the implementation of THIS genius bit of 'policy' immediately drove the price of corn tortillas skyward in Mexico and there were riots. Now they are all coming here.....
